7-Isopropyl-1,4a-dimethyl-1,2,3,4,4a,5,6,7,8,9,10,10a-dodeca-hydro-phenan-threne-1-carboxylic acid.

ABSTRACT: The title compound, C(20)H(32)O(2), has been isolated from hydrogenated rosin. There are two independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. In each mol-ecule, the cyclo-hexane ring assumes a chair conformation, while the two cyclo-hexene rings adopt half-chair and envelope conformations. Inter-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonding between carboxyl groups links pairs of independent mol-ecules into dimers.
